In our genetic analysis we used SINEs (short interspersed elements) of nuclear DNA as genetic markers, and by means of Inter-SINE-PCR, have clearly demonstrated a species distinctiveness of M. petax. Our further analysis has also shown, that they considerably differ from M. daubentonii s.str. in skull proportions, dental features, as well as in bacular shape and size. Both species also differ in their ecology and general appearance, especially coloration.

The new species differs from all known species of Plecotus in size, cranial proportions and pelage coloration. In some metric and qualitative traits (skull size and face shape) it resembles P. auritus. The similarities between these two species may be convergent, though. The shape of the baculum of the new species is strikingly similar to that of the insular P. teneriffae. At present the phylogenetic relationships among the species of Plecotus remain unresolved.

A new subspecies of Myotis mystacinus (Vespertilionidae, Chiroptera) from East Asia. Acta Theriologica 41: 331-335. A new subspecies of the Whiskered bat, Myotis mystacinus mongolicus, is described from eastern Mongolia and Transbaikalia. Compared to other north-east Asian members of the subgenus Selysius Bonaparte, 1841 it most closely resembles the central Asian M. mystacinus przewalskii Bobrinskoy, 1926 but differs from the latter by higher braincase and enlarged hind foot. In skull proportions, dentition and coloration patterns it occupies a somewhat intermediate position between M. mystacinus przewalskii and M. brandtii (Eversmann, 1845).

However, many aspects of this diversity, even for relatively well-known groups such as mammals, are poorly known, limiting ability to develop conservation plans. This study examines the value of DNA barcodes, sequences of the mitochondrial COI gene, to enhance understanding of mammalian diversity in the region and hence to aid conservation planning.
